Censorship seems generally designed to silence dissent. America's free speech has been enshrined in law since the inception of the nation. Use it or lose it.

A censor is a man who thinks he knows more than you ought to. A censor is a man (a society) plagued by delusion and insecurity with truth hidden for seventy years.
